This is Privatisation – Written Monday 17th August 2020 (Aged 45)

This is Privatisation

your private models of care
and health
generating income
it is all about wealth
free markets
and the commissioner provider
the morals and the ethics
are not an insider
tell the truth,
does it not smack –
of privatised healthcare
and a system of markets
where patients –
become income generators
should there not be state provision?
this does not add up
even without the long division
so you must think about –
the cup from which you sup
and the bottle from which you drink
your models of care
and health
generating income
it is all about wealth
this is privatisation
and it is barely even by stealth




James Garratt – Monday 17th August 2020
